Officer Pam Christian of TCU Police directs RAD classes, Assault Prevention Theatre, Froggie Five-O and gives crime prevention talks, all an ongoing effort to keep the campus community safe.

At Fall Convocation, Chancellor Boschini focused on TCU’s “culture of connection” and the TCU Promise.  Every day, hundreds of faculty, staff and students fulfill the elements of the promise, making this university the great place it is.  Officer Pam Christian (TCU Police), is another example of making that promise work on a day-to-day basis.

 

A 14-year member of the campus law enforcement office, Pam says she aims to teach students lessons that will stay with them for life. "I hope to them become a more aware person, a better citizen and a person who trusts police officers once they move into adulthood," she says.

 

Pam is responsible for the Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) classes that are free and open to all women on campus, Assault Prevention Theatre that teaches students to assess potentially dangerous situations by way of a theatrical production, the Froggie Five-0 program that provides a safe golf cart ride from parking lot to residence hall when female students are afraid to walk and crime prevention talks which she will present to any campus group upon request.

 

"I enjoy working with students, educating them to be safe during their college years," Pam concludes.

 

If you would like to submit names of faculty and/or staff who exemplify the TCU Promise, please e-mail s.record@tcu.edu and include a brief description of that person’s contributions.  Here are the elements of the TCU Promise:

 
The TCU Promise is a reciprocal commitment to excellence through discovery and achievement that unites the TCU community.

TCU faculty and staff commit to providing:
    Relevant and challenging curricula
    Energetic and innovative learning opportunities
    An invigorating social milieu

The University commits to:
    Nurturing a safe and diverse environment that is committed to:
    The free exchange of ideas
    The discovery and dissemination of knowledge
    The encouragement and recognition of creative and scholarly distinction

By upholding the TCU Promise, faculty, staff and students ultimately create a unique environment on campus and it's what we like to call the TCU Experience.
